Acid reflux is a painful condition that causes stomach contents to back up into the esophagus after food is consumed. The National Digestive Disorders Information Clearinghouse explains that both adults and babies can suffer from acid reflux, although it is very common in babies when babies cry, cough or do any other action which causes their lower esophageal sphincter to open up, allowing stomach contents to back up. Some of the ways that babies are fed and what they are given can affect acid reflux in babies.
Babies are being medicated for infant reflux at an alarming rate
these days, often before common sense lifestyle changes are recommended.
As a society we have been programmed to look for medication as a quick
symptom mask but when it comes to a baby we are more concerned that the
product is "natural".
